A 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in brushed brass with a matte white glass shade, ideal for entryways and hallways.
The Athens sconce combines industrial and transitional styling with a brushed brass finish and a cased matte white glass globe shade. Its compact 8-inch width and 8.5-inch extension make it a versatile accent light for corridors, foyers, and living spaces.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways, mounted at eye level to provide ambient and accent lighting
- Living rooms and dens as a reading or accent sconce beside seating
- Damp-rated bathrooms (non-shower areas) such as above a vanity mirror
- Transitional and industrial interiors where brushed brass and white glass complement the palette
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is an accent fixture
- Outdoor uncovered areas (damp location rated, not wet)
- Very large walls where a wider sconce would be more proportionate
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a standard 60W incandescent equivalent LED bulb, expect 600-800 lumens - suitable for accent and ambient lighting, not as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
The matte white glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare. Choose a warm white (2700-3000K) LED bulb for a cozy, inviting glow that complements the brushed brass finish.
Sizing and fit
The sconce extends 8.5 inches from the wall and measures 8 inches wide by 11.75 inches high. The backplate is 4.5 inches wide by 6.25 inches high. Ideal for walls with at least 12 inches of clearance.
